| Description |
Autosomal dominant optic atrophy (DOA) is the most common inherited optic nerve disorder and about 60% of patients harbor pathogenic mutations in the OPA1 gene. Although the pathological hallmark of DOA is the preferential loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGC), up to 20% of patients with OPA1 mutations will develop a more severe disease variant (DOA+) with additional neuromuscular features. |
